Wizards have bye week to regroup

After a productive four-game homestand where they dropped only one decision, followed by a 1-0 triumph at Chicago, and then consecutive losses on the road, the Kansas City Wizards have a bye week to recoup.

Kansas City comeback falls short

For the first time this season, the Kansas City Wizards faced a real mountain to climb. And while they weren't able to come all the way back, falling 2-1 to the Columbus Crew on Saturday night in the third game of a six-game road swing.
